Updates in antenatal care for GPs (A women's health short course)
This short course has focussed on some recent updates on a range of diverse topics including gestational diabetes management, update on the use of Rh (D) immunoglobulin in Australia, exercise and physiotherapy in pregnancy and finding reliable information on the use of medicines in pregnancy. The short course allows participants to collaborate with their peers within relevant case studies and provides several useful printable reference tools for future use. There is also a very valuable audio contribution from 3 women who have kindly agreed to share their antenatal experiences.
